header enrichment

[mauro]

Normally in a mobile services there's no specification into the header about connection type.
many sniffing were done but only specific equipment allows to enrich the header with this inofrmation,
for example some particular charging proxy.
We need to have this information cause from server side could be interesting to give to the user different services according to the user connections.
now i asked, if freeradius can help us in this.
regards
Mauro

Alan is right.  I would imagine that you'd need to use the 3GPP or
3GPP2 RADIUS dictionary to respond with attributes that could be used
by the client to perform the header enrichment.  As long as the
information can be presented as a regular RADIUS attribute or VSA,
then you can use FreeRADIUS to provide that information to the client
(the device performing the header enrichment function).

Rgds,
